Lopez threw 1,020 in only 9 rounds against penalosa and connected at a much higher percentage. Just saying , I know penalosa didnt hide behind his shell like Clottey , but just to show is not that unusual. And Lopez is not in the level of Pacquiao
Isn't 1300 Punches A Bit Unusual?

Not at all.
Paul Williams and Margarito regularly throw around 1000+ punches per fight.
Vitali threw close to 1000 punches against KJ.Comment

Yeah I know, this looks like a steroid bait thread but when a fighter is not landing punches isn't it a bit unusual to maintain that work rate for 12 rounds? Sure there are some fighters known for high volume output, P. Will, Kassim Ouma, Margarito, etc...but those punches aren't what anyone would call powershots. Manny's punches seemed to maintain the same snap and zing all night, all humans must suffer fatigue at some point, I dont even think Manny was breathing hard.
Some say he looked tired after 6 but I disagree, he just looked frustrated cause he wasn't landing. The guy averaged 100+ punches per round, at some point shouldn't he had punched himself out?Comment

It's not unusual when your fighting a punching bag with legs. Clottey never put any pressure on Pacman, and never did anything to make Pacs heart rate go up. He also stood right in front of him and let Pac do his business as he wanted. Pac could of thrown more if not for the times where he basically invited Clottey to do something.Comment
